Aaron Ramsey says he would score so many goals if he played with one current Arsenal star

During his 11 years at the club, the midfielder had plenty of ups and downs, but when he was fully fit he was a fantastic player to have – the 2013/14 season being a prime example.

Now Ramsey has named the player he would have loved to play with – Martin Odegaard.

How do you rate Martin Odegaard and why?

Aaron Ramsey says Martin Odegaard would help him if they played together at Arsenal

Aaron Ramsey was a very special player.

The Wales international wasn’t a world champion like Patrick Vieira or Declan Rice, but he had a unique skill set in the middle of the park.

Whether playing in attacking midfield or as a number eight, Ramsey has made a habit of making dangerous late runs into the box.

It helped him score several goals for the Gunners, and he now claims his tally would have been higher if he had played with current Arsenal captain Odegaard.

On Stadium Astro, Ramsey was asked to name the Gunners star most like him.

He replied: “That’s a tough question. I think they should bring me back there, to be honest. No, I mean, they play a bit differently now compared to the Arsene Wenger era. I don’t know…”

Danny Simpson then stepped in and claimed that Ramsey would play in place of Odegaard in the number 10 role in this Arsenal team.

The Welsh legend replied: “I think I would definitely enjoy playing with him. I think he’s a great player and he’s so intelligent.

“He would definitely be able to give me a few assists on my late runs into the box.”

Is Aaron Ramsey the greatest Arsenal legend of the Emirates Stadium era? If not, who is?

Aaron Ramsey doesn’t get the credit he deserves at Arsenal

Everyone recognizes Ramsey as a good player, but few people really give him the credit he deserves.

The former Cardiff player was the main reason why Arsenal ended their trophy drought in 2014. He had an incredible campaign and scored the winning goal in the FA Cup final against Hull City.

Ramsey was instrumental in the Gunners winning two more FA Cups over the next three years. When he was fit and shooting he was almost unplayable, but injuries really hurt him.

In fact, if he hadn’t been left out of the 2019 Europa League final, we’re convinced Arsenal would have beaten Chelsea.

Ramsey deserves a lot more credit than he gets. He is one of the most important players Arsenal have had during the Emirates Stadium era.
